What it covers
Tunneling is a minimally invasive flapping technique, providing vertical tissue displacement and space for possible addition of a grafting material. Unlike conventional open-air flaps, tunneling avoids visible incisions, maintains papillary integrity, and significantly post-operative ischemia, inducing fast and reproducible healing.
This lesson provides a detailed step-by-step overview of the classical intrasulcular tunneling procedure, and strategies to minimize technical complications.
Then, the lateral window(s)-based procedures are introduced (VISTA and derivates), for cases with difficult access, fragile tissues, and/or complex graft insertion.
Key aspects of tunneling difficulty and connective tissue graft insertion assessment are explored.
In particlar, this lecture covers the following topics:
- Extensive description of standard intrasulcular tunneling procedure: the gold standard
- Extensive description of lateral window(s)-based procedures for challenging cases
- Assessing the difficulty of tunnel preparation and graft insertion for optimal surgical planning: choosing the right tunneling technique for the right case
